The Tiny Book of Rulesis tiny and it's about the Rules module for Drupal. Rules is a module usually used to auto-mate actions on your Drupal site. Rules can react on events occurring on your site - such as a user logging in or a node being created - and perform customized follow-up actions such as redirecting to a certain page or setting field values. Optionally, Rules can evaluate condi

This open access book presents the first comprehensive overview of general methods in Automated Machine Learning (AutoML), collects descriptions of existing systems based on these methods, and discusses the first series of international challenges of AutoML systems. The recent success of commercial ML applications and the rapid growth of the field has created a high demand for off-the-sh

This book presents the VISCERAL project benchmarks for analysis and retrieval of 3D medical images (CT and MRI) on a large scale, which used an innovative cloud-based evaluation approach where the image data were stored centrally on a cloud infrastructure and participants placed their programs in virtual machines on the cloud. The book presents the points of view of both the organizers o

SQL Server is Microsoft's relational database management system (RDBMS). SQL Server can now be hosted entirely in Microsoft Azure, either in a hosted virtual machine (VM) or as a hosted service. Hosting a virtual machine in Azure is known as infrastructure as a service (IaaS), and hosting a service in Azure is known as platform as a service (PaaS). Microsoft's hosted version of SQL Serve

With the introduction of container support in Windows Server, we open a world of opportunities that takes traditional monolithic applications on a journey to modernize them for better agility. Containers are a stepping stone that can help IT organizations understand what key items in modern IT environments, such as DevOps, Agile, Scrum, Infrastructure as Code, Continuous Integration, and

JavaScript has come a long way. It may have seemed like a "toy language" at first, but it has evolved into the powerful dominant scripting language of the Web. JavaScript is now found not only in the browser, but on the server, and it's even moving into the world of hardware.

The handbook extensively covers security architectures such as the TrustedBSD MAC Framework

Data encountered in a computer program is classified by type. Common types include integers, floating point numbers, Boolean values, and characters. Data structures are a means of aggregating many of these scalar values into a larger collection of values. An algorithm is an explicit sequence of instructions, performed on data, to accomplish a desired objective. This open access book serv

This book is not a handbook that specifies which cryptographic algorithm to use in every situation, nor is it a guide for securely implementing production-ready cryptographic libraries. The authors do not discuss specific cryptographic software, such as PGP, Tor, Signal, or TrueCrypt, nor do they cover cryptocurrencies like Bitcoin. Readers will not learn how to become hackers by reading
